Thanks for running this again, ZeroSignal! As someone who hasn't played any of the final 4 here, Kirby v ER was far closer than I anticipated and fun to watch. ZeroSignal posted...

Elden Ring just isn't my type of game at all, but it's good to see new single player games doing well. VS was definitely the more fun of the two for me. Drop in and out games definitely rising up the ladder for me overall. --- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus ...

Xenoblade 3 really didn't do so hot. yeah it was robbed. it's not a perfect game but it has one of the best "stretches" in any JRPG ever. it has a great beginning, dips for a while, has a truly awesome stretch, and then kind of fizzles out. also I would definitely vote for ring fit over sekiro, and probably over elden ring. --- while you slept, the world changed ...

I think Kirby is the real bellweather for a disappointing 2022, not Vampire Survivors. At least by B8's preferences. When this board has to latch onto a C-string Nintendo series, something went a bit wrong. --- It's Reyn Time. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah Kirby may be a C-list franchise but Forgotten Land is definitely not a C-list game, its perhaps the best received and definitely the best selling in the franchises history. I do think there was a little bit if people just trying to stop Elden Ring though. Vampire Survivors is great too. 2022 was certainly not a disappointing year. Also lets not pretend that people didnt love Skyward Sword when it came out. It was later on when it became cool to hate that game. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ...

andylt posted... Wow, this one surprises me! 2019 was the last crazy year we had before 2022. Three Houses was the overall 2nd seed in the tournament and dropped in round 2. Along with that, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night also got a #1 seed and dropped in round 2 to Life is Strange 2. Of course as mentioned earlier, Sekiro became the first and only #2 seed to lose its opening match. Even a #3 seed lost in round 1 that year, Slay the Spire dropped to Devotion. No tournament would be complete without a 12 > 5 upset, and Bug Fables did just that beating Jedi Fallen Order. It almost beat Mario Maker 2 in round 2. Ring Fit Adventure became the first #15 seed to win a match, and did that twice. RFA vs Yooka-Laylee 2 in round 3 became the longest match in tournament history, clocking in at 96 hours. The last two #1s made it to the semifinals. Kingdom Hearts III dropped to Disco Elysium in a nice upset, while overall #1 seed Resident Evil 2 lost in OT to AI: The Somnium Files Finally, in a rare 4 seed vs 2 seed final, Disco Elysium (2) defeated AI (4) 15-13. While it would eventually make its way to consoles in later years, at the time Disco Elysium was still PC only, making it the first standalone PC title to win Game of the Year --- Formerly known as Raven 2 https://twitch.tv/TheZeroSignal ...
